1. Try again, as your profile is not even close.

3. A blanket statement that one would be harder than the other in EVERY individual is wrong.
4. I was trying to lighten up the mood with the friend comment and smilie face. You have been equally insulting of me
if you go back and read your words.
5. Once again, PEACE.
1. Really? I'd love to know which parts are wrong.
I will show now that the major (to me) assumption IS correct.
The major assumption is that you are a collectivist. If you knew anything about me at all, you'd know that THIS is the biggest insult that I could ever pay to another mind.
You are incapable of independent thought.
I will remind you that the biggest "weapon" you have tried to use against me thus far (other than your "word,") is the opinion of numerous other people.
You tried to gang up on me, pal.
Twenty other people, was it? One of whom thought I was a "fucking idiot," I think.
Is this supposed to impress me? It didn't.
But you, apparently thought that it should.
This means that you believe in the rightness of the greatest number...which is a fallacy.
But it's also the most basic definition of "collectivism."
You ARE a collectivist. But you don't deny this...though you somehow expect me to believe that I am wrong in this assumption?
You say that my assumptions of you are wrong. Aside from stating that you fit a specific profile (which I've not gotten very explicit about,) and stating the reasons why I think you spent a day or two out of the argument...I haven't really said what my assumptions about you ARE, have I?
Beyond some very generic, broad strokes about you being a collectivist. Because every "assumption about you" that I've made on this board has simply been proven extensions of collectivism.
If I've "misread" you...it's only because I haven't quite figured out WHICH type of collectivist that you are.
2. Nice backpedal, there.
3. I'm glad that you finally realize this as it has been one of the lynchpins of my argument that you have been ridiculing.
It's about time you got it.
4. I've never denied being insulting to you. I've only denied throwing the FIRST insult.
You did that by proxy...through your "friend."
Now...that wasn't really necessary, was it?
5. So now you quote the tagline I use in private messages when I don't think I've ever used it on the public board.
You even emphasize it.
Should I know who you are?
